Veronica and I visited David Austin Roses and were welcomed by David Austin, son of the founder, and Michael Marriott, Technical Manager Rosarian, who is a leading garden designer and has worked for the company for over 20 years. Despite the rainy day, the roses looked excellent and we greatly enjoyed a guided tour of the immaculately kept gardens, and were very interested to visit the green houses where new roses are developed and bred.
